Which is what the rumours are about, yet you took a swing at those.

So in conclusion Conan, you belittle his achievements in your first post and mock the rumours they have given rise to and in your second post you hope he gets a decent transfer in the summer. 

Have a good think about what a muppet you are and take as long as you need there Conan. 
Ok I've had a good think about it as instructed but still unable to see the contradiction between hoping TP gets a decent move away from Spurs and not giving much credibility to the plausibility of the inevitable Irish Twitter account claiming special knowledge of all the big Dutch clubs wanting a piece of Parrot action, any more than I believed the exact same rumours about Byrne and Crowley which credulous Ireland fans such as yourself lapped up at the time.
You sound really on the ball and in the know though Scissors so please do educate me.
Sorry to make you cry in to your cornflakes this morning. Cry

I don't remember one article linking Byrne or Crowley to the top clubs in Holland can you please post said articles.

Positional awareness, making the right runs, ability to finish etc.. are far better attributes than raw pace.

Robbie Keane was never the quickest player but always knew were to be.

Shane Long on the other hand was quick as lightening but couldn't finish his dinner most of the time.

Id love to see Parrott given the chance in a first team like Spurs where he wont be expected to do all the work he currently does in a team that doesn't have that much possession. The off the ball dropping deep into midfield to try win it back stuff, getting back to help defend a lead etc.. I think he would be a different player altogether in a team where he just has to receive the ball and make the forward runs, where he potentially gets several goal scoring opportunities in a single game.

It must be 4 or 5 years ago now but I remember him being given that chance in preseason with Spurs while still a teen and he looked as good as Ferguson leading the line.

He's fine where he is if he can get signed, Celtic is a toxic place to go it seems. All this stress for playing for a "massive" club but no real reward because it's only Scotland anyways.

As opposed to playing in a relegation battle in Holland!

He could be playing CL\EL and winning trophies.


It was far across the sea,
When the devil got a hold of me,
He wouldn't set me free,
So he kept me soul for ransom.

His team just gets completely battered most weeks. Currently 4-0 down not even half time yet

He'll get swallowed up at Celtic at present. Needs time to improve at a club with less expectations.
